Documents
1. Bond dated 7 June1650 with bounden Fabian Phillipps of Clodock , gent in a surety of £300.
Date of probate: as bond.
2. Inventory: undated ; value £3. Appraisers: Humphrey Powell and Edward Powell.
Observation
There is something odd here, her bond demands a surety of £300 but she has only a £3 inventory and unusually there is only one person, Fabian Phillips described elsewhere as gent and probably a local attorney, standing bound.
Her very short inventory is reproduced below with modern spelling.
Inventory
Imprimis one cupboard, one bedstead, one long table
board and frame, two forms, a great coffer with one
round table board and all other boards £3
